[Verse 1]
I asked the sandman to give me a dream
Fame and fortune like I’d never seen
Like a hamster caught in a wheel
The kinda guy that can’t afford my next meal

[Pre-Chorus]
You say that I can have all that I want and then take it away
You say I can have all that I want

[Chorus]
It’s all part of the game that you’re tryna win
It’ll make you a slave before you even begin
It’ll keep you awake like a Tokyo hit
Like a Tokyo hit
Keeps slipping away so keep hold of it

Loving the high life
Hating the low down

[Verse 2]
Feel like a renegade that just can’t compete
Feel like an outcast tryna get on my feet
I’m an architect without a degree
But I’m so fucking pale without vitamin D
[Pre-Chorus]
You say that I can have all that I want and then take it away
You say I can have all that I want

[Chorus]
It’s all part of the game that you’re tryna win
It’ll make you a slave before you even begin
It’ll keep you awake like a Tokyo hit
Like a Tokyo hit
Keeps slipping away so keep hold of it

Loving the high life
Hating the low down
